Step 1: Bake the sponge cake

Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C). Prepare 400 grams of FunCakes Mix for Sponge Cake as indicated on the package. Divide this mixture into two greased baking pans and bake the sponge cake for about 30-35 minutes until done. Immediately after baking, transfer them onto a cake rack and let them cool completely.

Step 2: Make the Enchanted Cream®

Prepare 200 grams of FunCakes Mix for Enchanted Cream® as indicated on the package. Slice the cakes 2 or 3 times with a cake leveler and fill with lemon curd and Enchanted Cream®. Next, thinly coat the outside with it.

Step 3: Cover the cake drum

Take 650 grams of FunCakes Covering Paste White and colour it light green with the food colour gel. Place the coated sponge cake on the cake drum and spread a little piping gel around the cake. Cover both the cake drum and the cake in one go with the green covering paste. Lastly, insert 4 dowels cut to size into the cake.

Step 4: Cover the sponge cake

Take 400 g of FunCakes Covering Paste White and colour it light pink with food colour gel. Place the small coated cake on a cake board and cover the sponge cake with the pink fondant. Place the light pink cake on top of the green cake.

Step 5: Make the drip and the large Easter egg

Place some purple Deco Melts in a bowl and add some white ones to achieve a pastel lilac colour. Melt this mixture in the microwave according to the instructions on the package and transfer it to a piping bag. Cut a small tip off the bag and give both cakes a drip with it. Use the remaining mixture to make the large Easter egg. To do this, coat the molds with a teaspoon of deco melts and let it harden in the refrigerator. Repeat this 2 or 3 times. Stick the 2 halves together with some melted Deco Melts.

Step 6: Make the Easter eggs

Also, melt some yellow, blue, and black Deco Melts mixed with some white according to the instructions in the microwave. Splatter the black Deco Melts into the Easter egg mold using a toothbrush. Let it set slightly in the refrigerator. Then, fill them with the yellow and blue Deco Melts and let the eggs set well in the refrigerator. Carefully remove them from the mold after about 15 minutes.

Step 7: Decorate the Easter cake

Prepare the remaining 200 grams of Enchanted Cream® with 200 ml of milk and put it in a piping bag with tip #1M. Pipe a beautiful generous border around the cake with Enchanted Cream® and decorate it with the made Easter eggs, FunCakes Sugar Flowers, sprinkles, and chocolate balls.

Step 8: Sculpt the Easter bunny

For the Easter bunny, knead the brown sugar paste smoothly with some white sugar paste to lighten it. Make a large cone for the body and insert a skewer into it. Make an oval ball for the head and place it on the skewer.

 

Place the purple Easter egg in front of the body. Make the arms and legs from rolls of sugar paste, slightly flattened. Attach them to the body and around the Easter egg with edible glue. Make ears from brown sugar paste and a small piece of pink sugar paste, and attach them to the head.

 

For the muzzle, roll two small balls and attach them to the head. Make the nose from a piece of pink sugar paste. Use the bone tool to make two holes in the head and fill them with white sugar paste. Paint a pupil with blue food colour gel and place a black pearl in the center. Use thin rolls of black sugar paste to make the eyelashes and eyebrows. Roll out some pastel green sugar paste thinly and cut a long strip with a sharp knife. Drape this scarf around the bunny's neck.

Step 9: Sculpt the frog

For the frog, knead pastel green sugar paste smoothly. Make a ball and flatten it slightly. Make a deep dent on top with your finger. Make the arms and legs from rolls of green sugar paste, and shape the ends to resemble toes. Hang the legs over the edge of the cake and place the body on top. Use edible glue if necessary. Attach the arms to the body with edible glue. Use the bone tool to make two holes in the head and fill them with white sugar paste. Place a black pearl in each hole. Make a roll from pastel lilac sugar paste and use it to make a scarf, draping it around the frog. Optionally, place an Easter egg between its hands.

Step 10: Sculpt the chick

For the chick, knead pastel yellow sugar paste smoothly. Make a large round ball for the body and insert a skewer into it. The head is a slightly oval ball that you place on the skewer. Use the bone tool to make two holes in the head and fill them with white sugar paste. Paint pupils with blue food colour gel and place a black pearl in each hole. Make two triangular wings from yellow sugar paste and attach them to the body with edible glue. For the feet, make two orange balls and flatten them. Use the PME Modelling tools to make indentations on the front as toes. Attach the feet under the body. Also, make a beak from a piece of orange sugar paste.

 

Finally, make a bow from pink sugar paste and place it on the chick.
